[Framers] Adobe licensing is migrating to subscription based

[Harding, Dan]

Can we get some confirmation from Adobe on this? This came up back in October of 2019, and at that time they stated that perpetual licenses through the TLP were still going to be supported. The TLP website is still active and doesn't say anything about being discontinued.

FYI

Despite what I was told last year:

    "/Customers will still be able to purchase perpetual licenses of all
    the above-mentioned products through Channel (Adobe authorized
    resellers) under Transactional Licensing Program (TLP) and
    Cumulative Licensing Program (CLP) even after 1 July 2019./"

... it appears that Adobe has made the decision that the purchase of 
perpetual licenses only applies to Adobe FrameMaker 15 AKA 2019 release. 
As quoted from the Adobe Territory Account Manager:

    "/FrameMaker 2019 will be available in Perpetual format.
    This mean, internet will not be required to keep the license active.
    This should be available for limited time."
    /

and /that//:/

    /"Going forward, all the FrameMaker versions will only be available
    in Subscription.//
    //That said, we still can support these licenses in an offline
    environment./"

But no further information was given.

Currently subscription costs stand at approximately US$30 / GB£30.34 / 
€UR 36 / AU$45 etc. per month.
